Is there anything I can offer that can prove I'm…

Why does 10p make difference when searching for 99p ending items
Why does 10p make the difference when searching for items which end with 99p. Search for items up to £2, does not find some £1.99 items. Search for items up to £3, does not find some £2.99 items. Just did some searches, £1.99 & £2.99 items with no bids were not found. If you search on £2.10 or £3.10, it finds those items.…

Ebay: will Sony honour the warranty if bought on ebay?
Hi, I'm thinking of buying something from Sony, from a seller who seems reputable, but I'm not sure what I could do if the product needs a repair after a few months.
